Description:
Coming to its 5th centenary soon, the old "Estudi General de València" initially dedicated to the study of medicine, humanities, theology, and law has become a modern European university today. Given the wide range of studies offered as well as its human dimension, the University of Valencia is one of the largest, oldest, and most varied Spanish universities.

HOUSING
by Philipp, Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien, Vienna, Austria
Business Studies, Erasmus
Personal assessment
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? a shared apartment is the best way of getting in touch with people; it's economical and it's just sooooo tight!!!
Personal comments:
the best is to rent a flat. You get the best deal. There are plenty of flats available and students from all over "la Comunidad" are sharing apartments. so you'll get in touch with lots of local people really easily. university housing in spain is really expensive This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Language difficulties
Language of instruction: Spanish
Was learning Spanish a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my Spanish How much did you improve your Spanish?
My level before: Basic phrases My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang) Personal comments:
Spanish is a must for living in Spain.Others languages are NOT spoken! But it's the best thing that can happen to you. After 3-4weeks you are FLUENT! Just speak, and don't be shy. Spanish people are very open. They love talking to strangers; especially if you are an exchange student This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

I wish I would have understood how cold it can be in the apartments in the winter. In my opinion:
Most people loved it.
During my experience abroad, I ...
Personal recommendation:
The location could have been better because the university is far away from all the other students. In the other hand, the group sizes are really small. FINAL COMMENTS
A city called Cuenca in central Spain is worth visiting. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
